Modded Crysis 2 Screenshots - Graphics King for the next 'x' years?

I don't know about everybody else, but even un modded I thought the lighting in Crysis 2 was absolutly fantastic. I knew as soon as everything was unlocked and ready for tweaking, the experianced Crysis crew as going to do wonders with that engine.

So what do those pics look like in actual size?

That looks Mindblowingly fantastic!!

until gameplay videos are released I would continue to call them bullshots because they look impossibly good.

Notice some people in this thread were saying modded Crysis or GTAIV looked better? It is because this kind of thing is not weird on PC.

PC does not have bullshots. :|

Its really a shame that the flagship franchise to represent this amazing engine has just been turned into another "shooter."foxhound_fox

The screens above aren't even Cry Engine 3 at its full potential.

DICE is Sweedish, the country which made Volvo.

Crytek is German, the heart of the engineering world.

Go Figure.:P

And both countries have the best looking women :D

DICE also brought the first DirectX 9-only game, which has gun models that are up-to-pat with today and sometimes even better. Pretty much everything except environments held up really well in Battlefield 2 IMO, especially those textures. DICE has always done that exceptionally well.

Crytek murdered Crysis IMO, so I don't care that much anymore :P

Kinda just looks like they added in some depth of field effects and captured at a super high res. Doesn't really beat BF3 or original Crysis to me.

you can not make a game a graphics king because of Mods

I disagree. Graphics potential with or without mods are the litmus test.

OT: looks great, but the levels are linear corridors effectively, making it less impressive.

Show me those graphics in an open world ala Crysis 1 and we can talk graphics king.

well Crysis 2, doesnt look like that

Crysis 2 + mod does, so how can Crysis 2 be graphics king, if it doesnt look like that

Edit: isnt it unfair to other great looking games, like Battlefield 3?

Mods push engines beyond what the developers had time or money to do, it is the same engine doing all the work, so its fine.

BF3 will no doubt have the better animation, but doesn't come close to looking as good as some of these screens. Can't wait for a custom graphics config.

This pic just looks unreal. Stalker using this engine would be crazy.

Ravenchrome

BF3 would look amazing as well if it had ToD art :P

DICE is Sweedish, the country which made Volvo.

Crytek is German, the heart of the engineering world.

Go Figure.:P

You can't compare a modded game to an umodded game, and vanilla BF3 will be better vanilla Crysis. Crysis is obviously still the king technically, but IMO its overrated. It is stupidly hard to run (with a smooth and consistent framerate) and does have issues in areas where it looks meh. There are other games graphics I prefer over Crysis. And as good as Crysis 2 looks, it doesn't beat Crysis 1.

Very true, but I am sure with a good rig on today's standards, it will be smooth. My computer which has 4 GB of Ram, quad core OC'd to 4 GHz, and a GTX570 still has some issues with Crysis 1, which is just stupid. I played the game on medium so i wouldnt have those annoying hitches in the framerate. I think DICE does a great job, and I am sure BF3 will be absolutely fine.

America wins this by default as we have women from every country in the world.

We loose by default because McDonalds is a part of their daily nutrition :P

Exactly. Even small little Ireland is covered in McDonalds and Burger King's.

But those shots look incredible. Crisp, shiny and reflective. I like it. Can't wait for some of the mods to really start coming out

People saying that BF3 will crush Crysis when it comes to graphics. Are you serious? Battlefield 3 is bloom, bloom, bloom and more bloom.001011000101101

The worst graphical aspect of Crysis may be beaten by BF3 as well.

Call me grumpy but this mod has zero aesthetic value imo.

But your eyes can react to sunlight and normal lights very badly in real life. Maybe not as drastically though. But its just an effect to make the game have its own personality and I think it looks great. But I never understood how in almost every game when you look at the sun there is no level in intensity. The witcher 2 did it well and mods for crysis 1 also did it but normally there is no change

Animation been one of the most critical factors. It reall sells the believability of the world. Crysis has some very stiff animations sometimes. BF3 will kill it.

Off topic : I would love to see the ANT animation system in a new mirrors edge. That would work really weel seen as its all about movement

I wonder where all the console fanboy comments went when they wouldsay they are getting the better deal with graphics cause Crysis 2 looked strongly similar on all platforms and that it proves consoles can do what PC can :lol: I do still see them on outdated comparisons with DX9 I even see some of them say that the DX11 patch doesn't count cause it didn't come at release :roll: or that take away DX11 it looks like console versions (they also forget the high res texture packs).

Anyway I'd like to see some phyics/destructability mods cause if a rocket launcher can't make some of even the same objects in Crysis fly around like that giant wool holder then it feels wrong to me.

After seeing Infinity, X:Rebirth, GTAIV Ice, BF3, new Unreal engine, new Metro and of course, Crysis modded - it doesn't impress me, looks overdone like a girl with too much make up.

A few more shots. The modding scene rapidly picking up.

Some awesome videos both in real time

i suppose you will have to wait until modders release videos then. don't call them bullshots because they look impossibly good.

until gameplay videos are released I would continue to call them bullshots because they look impossibly good.

And when they are proven to be real (albeit on a very high end specs), consolers will say something along the lines: "Well - it doesn't look THAT much better than consoles" ...

you can do Super Sample AA at 1600p on PC, you cant do that on consoles, so no, they are not bullshots

Ok, Let me know where you can find a PC that can play Crysis 2 on those settings at a resolution of 10240x6400 aka 65.5 megapixels. The function used to take the supersampled screenshots is TRUE supersampling, rendering both axis at 4x the resolution you would be playing at.

[QUOTE="HaloinventedFPS"]

[QUOTE="ferret-gamer"] Actually Harisemo is right on a lot of these screenshots, many of them are supersampled which does qualify them as bullshots, they would run perfectly fine minus the supersampling, just would have a bit worse image quality.ferret-gamer

TRUE supersampling? Could you give me the source defining that, or did you just make it up?

In reality x4 SSAA is looking amazingly smooth and I have played games with it.
